Tuscan cooking class
Giacomo is a chef and sommelier, as well as an organic farmer with vineyards and olive trees. He is passionate about food and sharing his knowledge of cooking, stressing the importance of high quality ingredients. He shared traditional recipes from his grandmother and researched authentic Tuscan recipes. No cooking expertise is required, but an experienced chef would benefit from the fine points of his technique. We spent 3.5 hours cooking and then 1.5 hours eating food we prepared or watch...阅读更多

Thank you for such a lovely review!
It means a great deal that both first-timers and someone with real kitchen experience can find something worthwhile in the class — that balance is exactly what we aim for.
Glad the wine pairings rounded off the meal nicely, and yes, comfortable shoes are essential advice for anyone joining us!
Grazie! 🙏

Fun, educational, and delicious!
An unforgettable experience! I learned so much about how to properly cook beautiful Italian dishes. Chef Giacomo shared and taught his grandmother’s recipes and techniques. He really cared about making sure we understood and prepared our dishes correctly. We then got to enjoy our 5 course dinner with wines expertly selected to pair with each. HIGHLY RECOMMEND!

I'm really glad this came through! I don't just want guests to watch a dish being made — I want them to leave able to cook it again with confidence, understanding the reasoning behind each step. Being able to share our traditional recipes that way, then watch you enjoy the dinner with wines chosen for each course, always makes me proud. Thank you for such kind words — I do hope Tuscany brings you back to our kitchen again one day.

Tuscan cooking delight by Giacomo
Giacomo and his wife Christiana provide an awesome cooking and eating experience. Had a wonderful time making and eating our dinner. Giacomo explains and demonstrates techniques excellently describing balance and importance of ingredients. I learned a number of new techniques that I will surely use. One of the best cooking experiences I had, I highly recommend it.

Thank you for such a generous review! What means the most to me is that you didn't just follow the steps — understanding why the balance of ingredients matters is exactly what I hope stays with every guest long after the class. Knowing you're already planning to use it again is the best kind of compliment. Cristiana and I loved having you with us for the evening, and we hope Le Caggiole sees you again one day.

Such a special experience!
It’s been about a week since my husband and I took Giacomo cooking class and we talked about it everyday since! Giacomo taught us all about the importance of the ingredients you are cooking with and how that truly makes the dish. We have already started using the knowledge Giacomo gave us to find the right ingredients to make the gnocchi that we can’t stop thinking about! Aside from that the kindness and care that is shown from Giacomo and his wife Christina makes you feel like family. They even...阅读更多

Thank you both so much.
There's no better compliment than knowing those gnocchi followed you home — and that you're already seeking out the right ingredients to do them justice.
That's really the heart of it: the quality of what you start with is everything. It was a true pleasure for Cristiana and me to welcome you, and we're glad the photos took that worry off your hands so the day could just be yours. We'd be delighted to cook with you again one day in Montepulciano.

A Beautiful Taste of Authentic Tuscany
We thoroughly enjoyed our cooking class with Giacomo. His knowledge and passion for quality ingredients are evident, yet he shares it in a wonderfully approachable way. His wife Cristiana, who runs the class alongside him, was equally lovely. We especially enjoyed hearing stories about his grandmother's cooking traditions and how he has brought them into modern technique.
The kitchen and cooking areas were impeccably clean and the class was exceptionally well run and professional. One thing to ...阅读更多

Thank you for this lovely review!
Hearing that my passion for quality ingredients, for all the little details came through in an approachable way means a lot to me.
It is exactly what I aim for every class!
I am also truly glad you appreciated how I bring my grandmother's traditions into a modern approach.
And we are equally proud that the cleanliness and professionalism of the whole experience did not go unnoticed — these are things we care about deeply.
And thank you for mentioning the meal — having a good meal beforehand is actually the advice I always share with my guests, so they can give their full attention to the cooking and arrive at the tasting in the best possible way.
We hope to welcome you back one day!
Grazie! 🙏
